Ming Zhengzhi, I am Zheng Kezang

When the news that Xie Jiping's troops were ambushed by the Qing army reached Xi Daping's ears, the forward of the right army had already captured the Burdu Kusubarhan Gate, but before all the supporting troops passed through the narrow gate, the follow-up news came. When it was passed on, Xi Daping, who was thinking about it, asked the staff around him: "You all talk about it, after the Qing army defeated the left army, why didn't they go all out to win a complete victory, instead of accepting it when they saw it? "

The founding man, the (seventh honor) inspector prince Xima, the (fifth rank) Fengyi doctor, (the fifth rank) the first-class lieutenant, and the army Sima engaged Lu Weijing put forward a hypothesis: "Will the casualties of the prisoners be cleared?" It's also very big, so you have to give up halfway?"

"Judging from Xie Tongzhi's military report, the casualties of the Qing prisoners were about [-], of which armored soldiers accounted for more than half. It seems that the [-] casualties may indeed have caused the Qing prisoners to lose a lot of vitality." The founding son, (six honors) the inspector prince Zhongyun, (from the fourth rank) the doctor of Chaolie, (from the fourth rank) the captain of Shou Que, and the military commander Yuan Jiping shook his head. "It's just that the Qing prisoners obviously still have enough strength to capture Master Xie's crude fortifications, and time is also in their favor. Once it is delayed until night, whether it is a night attack on Xie's troops or turning around to ambush our army's reinforcements that are rushing away, it will be difficult for them." A lot can be gained.”

"But the Qing captives have withdrawn their troops and left." Jianguo Nan, Fengyi doctor, first-class lieutenant, and military commander She Xiong said. "This shows that the Qing prisoners did not actually want to destroy any part of our army, but simply wanted to hold back our army's march northward."

"It doesn't make sense to make such a judgment." The founding man, the man from Muchuan County, the inspector prince Zhongyun, and the fourth-ranked auxiliary country defeated the enemy and declared their sincerity and strength. Military minister Cao Yichong spoke slowly. "If we destroy Xie's headquarters, our army will be intimidated, and we will be afraid that we will lose our food supply, so our pace will naturally slow down. Now that we have fought to the fullest, our army may see the face of being strong on the outside and doing nothing on the inside."

"Your Majesty Cao, what do you mean the Qing captives are actually trying to lure me to go north quickly?" Cao Yichong was obviously unable to keep others from envying him as a mere fifth-rank official, so he objected. "This is impossible. Everyone knew how many soldiers the Qing had. How could they multiply in just one winter? Since they cannot multiply, it is almost impossible to eat our army in one go. And if they can eat up our army in one go, Why lure me to go north, it is better to fight directly."

Some people objected, and some naturally agreed. Deng Chao, the founding man, Fengyi doctor, first-class lieutenant, and military commander, said: "There is no doubt that the Qing captives did not have enough troops to fight. It can be verified, but what if the Qing prisoner is going to make a fuss on the grain road?"

"What Mr. Deng said makes sense." Lu Weijing said again. "Once the food road is stretched, it will be almost impossible for our army to escort the convoy with a scale of [-], and the Qing army can easily cut it off. Even if the Qing soldiers have no water power, there is nothing they can do about our fleet in the river, but Next, the Dongliao River will come back and cannot be used. Our army will have to travel a long way to reach the Daoitun (Tong) River, and this section is the most dangerous.”

The discussion was very heated, but the result was that no matter what the Qing army did, the Xia army's top priority at present was to join forces, so as to prevent the Qing army from achieving a situation of defeating each one again.

According to the suggestions of the staff officers, Xi Daping then ordered Xie Jiping to leave the middle base regiment, supply regiment and divisional artillery regiment of the fifth division of the Dingsheng Army to build a military camp on the spot so as to guard the transportation on the Dongliao River nearby, and the rest of the troops continued to cover The fleet went up the river and joined the main force at Hells Gate.

At the same time, Xi Daping also left behind the first division of the Japanese army, the middle base, and the first regiment of the second brigade of the division to demolish the wicker border and build a fortress near the Burduku Subarhan Gate, so as to match the military fort built by the Dingsheng Army. Form a corner.

Xi Daping didn't know that after a few years, these two military strongholds, which were mainly used to ensure the safety of grain roads, would develop into Shuangliao and Siping counties successively, let alone Siping County in the future. It became an important node on the Northeast Commercial Road and became prosperous for a while

On April 15, the [-]th year of Huaxia Wucheng, the main force of Xi Daping's department and Xie Jiping's department, who was escorting food and supplies, joined forces again.

Afterwards, the Xia army began to build a military stronghold at the north bank of the Dongliao River not far from Helsu Gate, and left two regiments of soldiers and horses to shield the future land connection with Kuanchengzi on the Yitun River.It's just that due to the interruption of the waterway, Xia Jun can only rely on animal power and manpower to transport supplies for the next trip, which greatly reduces the efficiency, which drags down the marching speed and is forced to slow down.

The sudden drop in marching speed intensified the worries of Xia Jun's senior military attache, so Xie Jiping, who suffered a big loss in the fight with Yunyu but gained some experience, suggested to Xi Daping: "Marshal, it's not a problem to go on like this. The officials thought that it might be possible to organize the rangers under the jurisdiction of each division and brigade into a regiment."

Xie Jiping made the suggestion based on the strange phenomenon that the cavalry of the Qing court was not found during the battle, which made Xi Daping's eyes light up, so he ordered all the ranger posts to be directly under the battalion.In this way, the complete 24 ranger posts of the four divisions and the remaining one and a half ranger posts of the fifth division of the Dingsheng army and the six six-point cavalry posts drawn from the fourth division of the flying cavalry army were combined into five Temporary Rangers.Two of the five temporary cavalry regiments were sent out by Xi Daping to monitor the movement around the main marching route, and the remaining three regiments went straight to the banks of the Songhua River.

On April [-]th, Xia's advance temporary cavalry regiment arrived at Kuanchengzi.

After taking control of the deserted village, the three temporary bosses discovered clues from the human and horse feces left in the village.Thinking that the main force of the Qing army had been stationed before, they decided to divide the troops into three groups, and visited Bodune in the northwest, Ula in Jilin in the east, and Alejin in the northeast.

Xia Jun's actions caught the Yunyu Department, who had just retreated to the Yinma River line to rest and stand by, by surprise.what to do?Blocking?I'm afraid that exposing the position of the main force of the Qing army does not count, and it may not be able to block Xia's cavalry.withdraw?Where to retreat?Although there are coalition forces from the Guoerluo people and the kings outside the pass in Boduna, the main force of the Xia army is likely to arrive later. If there is a decisive battle at that time, Yunyu can't guarantee that the coalition forces will be as elite as his own, let alone It is said that the ability of the Mongols is on the horse, but now is the season when the horse is the least powerful.The same is true for withdrawing to Jilin. The small wooden city of Wula in Jilin cannot resist the Xia army's siege.Unless the Songhua River is withdrawn immediately, the thawed river water is used to block Xia's offensive.But in this way, the only thing Yunti can do is to watch the fire from the other side.

"Lord Chu, what do you see ahead?" Yunyu was still in a dilemma, but a sentry regiment of Xia Jun who ran fast enough had already broken into the rear of the immigrants. "I'm not mistaken, they seem to be ordinary people?"

Chu Bowei, who served as the temporary head of the regiment with the Sima of the First Division of the Tiger Wing Army, said with bright eyes: "I said where did this man go along the way, good, great, order the posts to rest For a while, we will make a lot of money next, and we must not let these people fall into the hands of the Tartars and continue to be a disaster."

The sudden arrival of Xia Jun caused the already tense bannermen to panic, fleeing like headless chickens one by one.Some flag officers and flag soldiers, including Niu Luzhangjing and Cui Ling, who were in charge of the people, tried to stop Xia Jun's charge, but they were shot and chopped down by Xia Jun one by one.Seeing this bloody scene, the clever ones knelt on the ground and begged for surrender, while the unintelligent ones were about to run farther, but Xia Jun who was chasing him cut him down from behind

"Report! Report to the Great General King, the main force of Haini has suddenly turned." In the camp at Erdaogou west of the Yinma River, Yunti unexpectedly got good news from Tanma. "After the main force of Haini arrived at Kuanchengzi, except for a part left behind to build fortresses and guard food and fodder, the rest headed towards Bodune."

"Commander, Haini only left less than [-] soldiers in Kuanchengzi, most of them were heavy soldiers. If you don't do it now, when will you do it?" Laketu, the deputy commander of the former army of the rear wing, said eagerly. "As long as Hai Ni's luggage is taken down, Hai Ni can only retreat to the south. Maybe we can regain Shengjing."

Yunyu waved his hand: "The Xia army only left 3000 people to guard Kuanchengzi. I'm afraid it's a trap. I'm tempted to attack."

Of course, Yunyu understood that the most likely reason for Xia Jun's turning was that he had discovered immigrants heading to Bodunana Road, but he was not sure that Xia Jun would definitely go far away and collide with the coalition forces of the kings.If Xia Jun didn't go far, but he bumped into it head-on, the result would be hard to say, at least the messenger sent by Yinti made it clear that Xia Jun first stood firm in Gu'an and severely frustrated the Mongolian army's spirit, and then ended it with a cavalry team For fighting, Yunyu naturally didn't want to repeat the mistakes of the Mongols.

"Come here, carefully inquire about Xia Jun's movements, and contact the Prince." Yunyu then explained to the puzzled subordinates. "We only have a little capital now, and we must not lose it easily in a wave of battle." Regarding this, the Eight Banners generals who had realized the power of the Xia army's artillery fire and the bravery of the armored soldiers could only agree, so they listened to Yunyu's arrangement. "Besides, taking advantage of the people on the West Road being discovered by Xia Jun, the speed of crossing the river on other roads will be accelerated."

But even though Yunyu made the most reasonable arrangement, Zeng Naihe and Xia Jun's other two cavalry teams also bit the backs of the Qing court's northward moving brigade after rampaging all the way. Yuji's Manchu and Han people caused the immigrants who had not yet crossed the Songhua River to fall into a deadly panic. The immigrants fled in all directions at will. A doomsday scene
